VALS Consultancy Services

Whether you’re wondering where to begin, feeling overwhelmed by choices or simply need someone to talk things through with, I’m here to help.

I’m Sharon Valentine, founder of VALS Consultancy, a Wedding Wellness Mentor and certified wedding planner since 2009. Drawing on my planning experience, I offer friendly, practical remote support to couples across the UK, helping you feel more confident about your decisions while keeping your wellbeing in mind.

Choose the support that suits you:

• Mentoring and clarity sessions to explore your ideas, work through worries and identify manageable next steps.

• Venue and supplier research packages, with tailored shortlists, availability checks and clear comparisons to help you decide who to contact and book.

• Styling ideas and mood boards to bring your colours, theme and wedding details together.

• Selected additional practical services, such as payment tracking and supplier liaison by email or video call.

Mentoring and supplier research are available through dedicated sessions and packages. Additional practical work starts from £50 per hour, with the scope and fee agreed before work begins. You choose the support you need.

My services are delivered remotely. I don’t attend the wedding, provide venue set-up or takedown, book or pay suppliers, or manage guest lists, RSVPs or seating plans.

You can also explore my free 50+ page interactive wedding checklist, designed to help you organise your next steps at your own pace.

Tell me where you are with your plans and what would make things feel easier. We can start there.

My journey into wedding planning began in February 2009, bringing together my love of meaningful celebrations and a background in credit management.

From the beginning, affordable luxury was part of my approach: helping couples create a beautiful, personal celebration while keeping a clear picture of their spending. My credit management experience brought a practical, methodical side to the business, from detailed spreadsheets and budget plans to tracking payment deadlines.

My wedding planning experience spans the UK and overseas, including Chicago, Jamaica, Cyprus and Spain. I’ve worked alongside talented suppliers on intimate celebrations and luxury weddings, including at Crewe Hall in Cheshire and the InterContinental London at The O2. That international experience also informs the remote guidance and research I offer couples considering a wedding abroad.

Behind the scenes, I brought supplier information together, kept in contact with everyone involved and helped couples stay on top of payments. That attention to detail still shapes my work today, whether I’m helping organise a budget, collating supplier details or reading through contracts to flag inconsistencies and questions to raise before signing.

Over time, I realised just how stressful wedding planning can become, and how little support couples can feel they have when they’re overwhelmed. That’s what reshaped my direction towards wellbeing, making space for how you’re feeling as well as what needs to get done.

That’s why I’m here as a Wedding Wellness Mentor: to offer a little handholding, guidance and the expertise I’ve gained over the years. You can talk things through, ask questions and feel supported as you make your own decisions. For me, it’s the best of both worlds: helping you move forward with your plans while feeling more at ease along the way.

A certified wedding planner since 2009, I’ve supported weddings across the UK and internationally, including Chicago, Jamaica, Cyprus and Spain. My experience spans intimate celebrations and luxury weddings at venues such as Crewe Hall and the InterContinental London at The O2, covering supplier coordination, styling and detailed planning.

I typically support busy professionals, modern couples, and overwhelmed brides and grooms who value calm, personalised guidance throughout the wedding planning process.

Many of my clients are balancing demanding careers, family responsibilities, or fast-paced lifestyles and want trusted support, supplier research, aesthetic guidance, and structured advice while remaining personally involved in planning their wedding.

My services are especially suited to couples who appreciate thoughtful recommendations, organisation, emotional reassurance, and a more supported planning experience without requiring a full traditional wedding planner.
